He brings in sorrow

To know I won't be there

Tomorrow, as he walks his life a hardened man

He's gotta understand I'm gone

Dear heart, it brings him misery

To know that he doesn't bring joy

I ain't his toy, no sacrifice will suffice

Dear heart.

Then I go and wonder why

I sit alone and act right

He's lying, I was nothing more

Than another score

Dear heart.

It gives me no easy night's slumber

As I count over and over

The numbers, you pleaded forever

Now it's never for me and my dear heart

Dear heart.

Like a fool I played the part

Then you go and break my heart

With that wound I've got news for you

We'll be through

You and my dear heart

Dear heart

Dear heart

Dear heart

You'll be through.
